Gorgeous model and I agree, Erkenbrand is one of my favourites! |

What are you doing for your Haradrim color scheme? I have a bunch I am queuing up to do in a desert/Mahud theme. |

Danke Matt! I'm glad you like it. I hope you guys will like my update too. I finished Erkenbrand now (including base) and I took up Théoden King again for some finishing touches on the base. Also finally finished my royal guards (some of the most beautiful GW LotR models imho!). I also finished Théoden (on foot), Éowyn and Gamling except for their bases, still not sure what to do for them. Last, but not least for today two small Isengard conversions: an Uruk war-drummer and a warrior with two swords.      Oh.. and keep your eyes open for more conversion updates soon..

Nice bases for the horses! How did you do the rocks and what static grass did you use? |

Hahaha Matt! Flawless is really exaggerated... but thank you for your kind comment! And Crucifer: Yeah I liked the result too when I tried that. I used small pieces of bark mulch that had the right shape.. I based them black and drybrushed in (light) grey and at the end almost white tones. That's it pretty much.. quite simple but great effect. For the grass: I use two sorts of a German company ("Noch") one is light green flockage that is pretty versatile. The static grass is "Scatter Grass Meadow" with a length of 1,5 mm. Hope that helps?

Great painting here! And very nice Elf conversions - why does everyone except me seem to get those shoulders right? |

Thank you so much mates! Telchar wrote: why does everyone except me seem to get those shoulders right? Don't worry.. some poses are still not really "natural" and also i took my inspiration from this forum John Wayne wrote: Nice Rohan mate . Gamling and Eowyn are my faves!Gamling's face almost drove me mad.. painting his small eye slits.. that [word deleted]  but I am happy with the result.For tonight just a little update: my Riders of Rohan. 12 riders with 11 'poses' (few little conversions for more diversity), try and find the double pose! ^^

Woah they look awesome together. You managed to sneak that one out of the bag. Love your banners btw. I still need to start my re-do banner. A great load off different poses too, i can see the double but its ok (i will let you off). Congrats btw your Eomer looks fine as he is.

Hah, thanks John! In fact I only made the small 'banner', i was inspired by the Two Towers where Éomer's riders have small banenrs on their spears too. I wanted to have those too, but not as banners, just as "deco". The royal gaurd's banner is actually a printed one from the BGiME mag The "double posers" differ in their helmets though.. one leather, one metal. ^^ Still have a Gamling with banner waiting to join them btw. If only had the time.. Oh and Éomer says thank you! ^^ |

Sorry for the doublepost (I see that many of you look at my thread, but only a few comment :S ) Anyway.. As promised more conversions! Joining my drummer, there is an Uruk with 2 handed axe, inspired by the one ukfreddybear modelled.. i'm not entirely happy with the left arm yet.. but for the first limb I ever modelled completely it's maybe not too bad. I hope it looks better when painted. The other 2 guys are the first of a whole bunch of Mordor orc conversions which I did during the last weekend. More to follow.. Comments, tips and critique welcome, as always.

Love the Rohan figures! I especially enjoy how clean the white looks on the horses & Gandalf. How did you achieve this? I'm looking for tips to painting white on horses as well. |

Thanks Son of Éomund! For the white painting (white horse are the HELL!!! :@ ): I mixed white with the base colour (grey for the horse, bestial brown for Gandalf) and I went with really watered down layers to get a soft blending. Gandalf also got a layer of Bleached Bone, mixing that with more and more white for highlights again. That's pretty much all the secret.. mixing colours and thinning them with water. Hope that helps? |

The mounted Gandalf is really top notch (but then so are the rest )

Thx Crucium and Matt for your kind comments! I fear I have disappointing news for you though Matt due to a massive lack of time (thanks to Uni and exams) I don't think I will find much time for painting within the next weeks  But at least, here is the next bunch of dirty orcses!
